We cut to the back to FTR asking for a title match, but The Gunn Club interrupt. They jaw back and forth with the Gunn Club mocking them and calling themselves the young FTR.

Tony is on the ramp with Wheeler Yuta but immediately MJF interrupts to a big pop! He says “Questionable Queens the Devil has arrived!” Crowd cheers MJF; and calls them his little Devil Worshippers and calls Tony a fat old prick. He says Wheeler will never get that type of reaction, and it isn’t cause he is m-m-m-mid but “I am a God to these people, they’d drink my spit! Any man would let me sleep with their wife! A Generational Talent”.

Wheeler says he is the king of low hanging fruit and calls out his engagement! Yuta offers his congratulations, and think she figured out that MJF is a “spineless, worthless piece of human garbage and she’ll walk out like you walked out on all of us!” MJF calls them the Blackpool Cuckold Club, and they’re fighting to lose the title tonight to him, not win it. He says you can still ask your mentors how to become injury prone, or can’t ask Moxley he isn’t all there. “Willy Regal, can you teach me to pop pills?” Wheeler with a massive shot to Max and Max hits him back. MJF PUSHES TONY and screams not to touch him but Wheeler takes him down! Morrissey appears behind him beginning to choke him with a belt, and MJF clubs him with the diamond ring!
